3.1

GENERAL

A. Failure to follow the factory required operations procedure may adversely affect the unit's
ability to adequately control process temperature and may create a hazardous operating
condition which may result in serious operator injury and/or unit damage.
B. The OPERATIONS segment of this manual is divided into the following sections:
3.2 Start up/operations - follow this segment to start the unit after the initial
installation to the process system or to restart the unit after re-installation to the
same or different process system. This section includes information on system
fill, electric motor phasing (motor rotation) and process flow adjustments.
3.3 Chiller Control - follow this segment to start up and operate the chiller control.
This section includes information on setpoint selection and adjustment, and
feature explanations.
3.4 Shut down procedure - follow this segment to shut down the unit. This segment
includes information on system shut down, electrical power supply precautions,
and disconnection from system.

START UP / OPERATION PROCEDURE

A. System Fill
1.
For operating temperatures from 48°F to 80°F use water to fill the unit. For
operating temperatures below 48°F a water and propylene glycol mixtures must
be used. An inhibited propylene glycol can be used for operating temperatures
above 48°F if desired to prevent corrosion and scaling. Use the minimum ratio
that is recommended by the glycol manufacturer. See section 8 of this manual for
more information.
2.
The unit has an internal reservoir which must be filled and maintained for proper
operation. The unit has a level switch mounted at the proper water level in the
reservoir.
3. WATER QUALITY CONTROL. Lack of, as well as, improper water treatment can
damage the chilling unit. The services of competent water treatment specialist
should be obtained and their recommendations followed. It is the equipment
owner's responsibility to prevent damage from foreign material or inadequate
water treatment. See water treatment section in section 1.6 of this manual for
more information.
4. FOR AUTOMATIC FILL: Always install a manual shut off valve on the make-up
water supply on the outside of the unit. When electrical power is applied to the
unit but the On/Off Selector is in the 'off' position open the owner supplied shut
off valve. The level switch will activate the make-up solenoid which will open
